    I think it looks stunning. I'm thinking even if I tried to copy what you did, it would still not look as good!

    I thought it was a great episode. I'm in the MR2 community and unfortunately, a lot of the rust and such came back on that car. Apparently it was scrapped a few years later. Then again, this episode was over 15 years ago. That car would be twice as old by now.

    The episode is from 2004. So after 8 years of possible neglect this is the end result. I think they MOT tested the cars before selling them. Apart from the corrosion all the other MOT failures were misdemeanors.
